"What?" I exclaimed in shock, turning to look in Jude's direction, and Dylan did the same.

"What does that mean?" Dylan asked, his voice tinged with confusion.

"She is live now!" Jude exclaimed, turning his tablet toward us. My heart sank at the thought of another twist in the ongoing drama. Despite Dylan's statement, it seemed that the storm was far from over.

So you think you have the right to say that after what you did? You should be ashamed of yourself for stooping so low. I thought you were classy, always carrying yourself with grace.
